Arnzen was born in Amityville, NY -- the location of the infamous "horror house" -- in 1967.

He was an active member of SPWAO -- the Small Press Writer's Artists Organization -- throughout the 90s. Arnzen and artist (later, wife) Renate Muller launched Mastication Publications in 1991 -- a small press imprint for poetry, responsible for two chapbooks in the early '90s: Chew and Other Ruminations (Arnzen's first poetry collection) and Psychos: An Anthology of Psychological Horror in Verse (an influential collection of poems that included writers like Steve Rasnic Tem, Marge Simon, and many more.
